Horror and thriller fans gather around. We invite you to listen as we watch two obscure horror/thriller movies a month and then BLOW YOUR MIND with our thoughts, opinions and insight on the films. Sometimes thought-provoking and informative but mostly ludicrous and fun, Filmed Obscura is your gateway into rare, obscure, hard to find and just plain awesome films (except one-you'll see). We also drink local beer. Thanks for listening. Hosted by Justin Adkins and Chris Herdter.

Ep. 44: Cruel Jaws (with Evan Przebowski)

September 12, 2023 • Justin Adkins & Chris Herdter • Season 6 • Episode 44

Bruno Mattei alert. Copyright Infringement alert (not by Filmed Obscura, of course). It's rip off time! Welcome back for the perfect "summer's over" movie. Actually, it's more of the perfect summer movie, but the boys had to do Night Killer first. This month, Chris chose one of the most notorious Jaws rip off movies of all time to spotlight and let's be honest, it lived up to the reputation. So much so that Evan had to seek outside counsel after watching it. What film you ask? Why it's Cruel Jaws...also known as Jaws 5: Cruel Jaws. The boys watched the Severin release of the film which included two cuts. The version being discussed here is the Mattei Cut. So please, keep that in mind. It's no Jaws, or Jaws 4: The Revenge, or The Last Shark, or Deep Blood...but know it has footage from all of those included. Pour your beverage now...it's time to swim.
